Hidden Mate
Rhea Dawson doesn't believe in monsters-not the kind that lurk in the woods, anyway. As a paralegal who's long since stopped reaching for more, she's built a life dealing with corporate villains who should be the stuff of bedtime stories. But when a case pulls her into a small mountain town filled with honest, salt-of-the-earth people, she finds herself entangled in a mystery that defies explanation. Shadows move where they shouldn't. Eyes watch her from the dark. And the only person she can trust is Beau Forrester-a rugged, enigmatic local who seems to be keeping as many secrets as the town itself. As tensions mount between the tight-knit community and Rhea's law firm, she and Beau find themselves drawn together in ways neither of them can ignore. But the deeper Rhea digs, the more unsettling the truth becomes-not just about the case, but about her past. She's not just an outsider looking in. She belongs to this world... whether she wants to or not. Because the monsters she never believed in? They've been waiting for her all along.Complete

Love. Trust. Promises. Years ago, Elianna Cortez and Veronica Sokolov were inseparable-two girls who promised each other the world. But then, Veronica vanished, leaving Elianna heartbroken and confused. Now an ambitious, bright-eyed lawyer, Elianna is trapped in a picture-perfect nightmare. Her husband, Victor Volkov, heir to an old-money empire, is charming to the public but abusive behind closed doors. He promises change, but Elianna knows better. Still, she stays-for reasons even she doesn't fully understand. One night, she's assigned a high-profile case involving Sokolov International, a shadowy business empire. When she walks into the boardroom, she freezes. Veronica is there-alive, powerful, cold, and breathtaking. She never stopped watching Elianna. In fact, she's been pulling strings to get her back. But Veronica isn't the same girl she once knew. She's now ruthless behind a polished corporate façade. As Elianna's life unravels, Veronica offers her an escape-but it comes with a price: loyalty, submission, and a love that might be more possessive than protective.
